U.S. Warns Israel to Boost Humanitarian Aid Into Gaza or Face Penalties
Briefly

The U.S. has warned Israel it will face consequences within 30 days if it does not allow more humanitarian aid into Gaza. The letter emphasizes the need for Israel to increase aid deliveries, as current levels are significantly low.
Matthew Miller stated, 'What we have seen over the past few months is that the level of humanitarian assistance has not been sustained... it has fallen by over 50 percent from where it was at its peak.' This alarming decline illustrates the dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
The letter sent to Israel indicates that Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III and Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken deemed it necessary to inform the Israeli government of needed changes to aid delivery.
Miller noted that September saw the lowest level of humanitarian aid into Gaza since October 7, showing the worsening conditions and indicating a critical need for action from Israel.
